Though the oft extravagant amenities found in Caribbean villas may be enough to entice most of us to vacation in sunny Jamaica, there's something to be said of the stunning seas that surround the island nation. Travelers hoping to spend some time on the water during their luxurious foray in the region may want to set their sights on the city of Montego Bay, more specifically, the Montego Bay Yacht Club (MBYC).

This exclusive facility, for which all non-member visitors must be signed in as guests, allows vacationers to see a bit of the luxurious side of Jamaica. The marina boasts an impressive collection of yachts, with some of the biggest private vessels in the area docking at this site. Boating enthusiasts may even be lucky enough to catch one of the Regattas sponsored by the MBYC, which invite some of the best yachters in the area to test their skills against one another.

Sportsmen will also have the opportunity to charter a vessel of their own and head out on the water for some sport fishing. Whether you're looking for a new trophy to line your mantle or hoping to catch that night's dinner, there is a wide selection of aquatic life to reel in. Some of the fish regularly caught in the area include mahi-mahi, sailfish, yellow-fin tuna and more.

The MBYC even runs an annual fishing competition that offers cash and prizes to winners from different age brackets.

Of course, some of us prefer for others to catch our meals for us, and the MBYC offers a dazzling culinary experience right on the water. The Seahorse Grill restaurant and cocktail bar features a number of excellent dishes from the mind of Chef Robert Joseph, who prepares global cuisine with West Indian flair using fresh and locally-sourced ingredients. The open air restaurant is also available for group events, making it an ideal location for a wedding reception or business outing.

With all of this luxury in the air, guests will want to make sure their vacation villa rentals will be able to match this level of opulence. To this end, booking a stay at the Greatview Jamaica Villa is a must. This six-bedroom private home more than lives up to it's name, offering unbeatable views of the island, and easy access to three local golf courses.
